The KCI Tax AdapterTM is a distributed software
component that connects existing insurance policy administrative systems to the
KCI Tax ServerTM system. This object oriented subsystem
manages tax related insurance policy information and requests between the
administrative system and the KCI Tax Server.

prevent MEC or Guideline failures

payment that has negative tax implications
